Flomax Relief, or tamsulosin hydrochloride, for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), will cost 16.99 pounds ($25.54) for a pack of 28 capsules lasting four weeks, maker Boehringer Ingelheim of Germany said.
It is the first time the medicine has been made available without prescription anywhere in the world.
The launch also represents a first in bringing a product for men's health into the over-the-counter (OTC) arena, although Pfizer has been exploring a non-prescription version of its popular impotence drug Viagra.
